body

gegenschein

comes to mind the word of this cloudlit day -

gift me the backscatter of sunlight and dust

the debris of a heart split ferries away the light

or something (listlessly watch the sun move by)

how dark is dark      how sweet is sugar      how gone is away

elephantine ghost follows me (famous idée fixe i know)

i fear for the lingering arrival where nothing is traded

while every hour that passes is one with a larger glow

and blemish       i fear the return when bleached is still

my middle name      gegenschein my ever reward

tell me       what will i do with it all?
